One year, three people and a very cute birthday boy! Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux are celebrating their son Rakeem’s first birthday, and the family came dressed for the occasion. For his big day, the couple stepped in front of the camera with their little boy in coordinated looks that bring together bold colours, traditional details and plenty of personality.
Priscilla shared the beautiful portraits with a sweet reflection on just how much life has changed since welcoming their son. “A year ago our family of two became three. 365 days later, our little one…” she wrote, marking the milestone with a glimpse into this special chapter for their family.
And if you were wondering what they wore for Rakeem’s first birthday, the answer is: a lot of colour, beads and beautiful traditional details.
Priscilla Ojo, Juma Jux, and baby Rakeem share a moment during his first birthday photoshoot.
Styled by Emmanuel Goodnews Icon, Priscilla wore a floor-length strapless gown by Lasosa by Pam Pam, featuring a sweetheart neckline and a fitted column silhouette. The front of the dress is covered in colourful geometric beadwork in emerald green, sapphire blue, mustard yellow, black and white, while a long emerald-green cape falls from her shoulders and trails behind her.
She completed the look with a tall cobalt-blue velvet gelè-style headpiece, a multi-cowrie shell necklace, matching cowrie bracelets and a green drop earring. Her beauty look stayed warm and understated, with defined brows, earth-toned eyeshadow, soft blush and a glossy nude lip.

Juma Jux, meanwhile, coordinated with his son in a P.Aries black tunic featuring wide three-quarter sleeves, a high Mandarin collar and bright teal, emerald-green and black geometric panels across the chest and sleeves. Metallic beaded trim runs around the neckline, while his matching filà-style cap carries the same pattern.
And then there is little Rakeem, who gets his very own mini version of Dad’s outfit. His short-sleeved black tunic features the same teal and green geometric panels, complete with a matching cap and tiny black dress shoes.

It is quite the way to mark one year.
It has been quite the year for Priscilla and Juma. After celebrating their marriage across Nigeria and Tanzania in 2025, the couple announced they were expecting their first child in July and welcomed Rakeem in Canada the following month. Now, a year later, their little boy is celebrating his very first birthday.
And judging by these portraits, Mum, Dad and their one-year-old have found a pretty good way to celebrate it.
